16.6 Configuring OIM Server, Design Console, and Remote Manager

If you are configuring OIM Server, you must run this configuration wizard on the machine where the Administration Server is running.

You must complete this additional configuration for Oracle Identity Manager components after configuring Oracle Identity Manager in a new or existing WebLogic administration domain.

Note:

You can run the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure Oracle Identity Manager Server only once during the initial setup. After the initial setup, you cannot run the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard again to modify the configuration of Oracle Identity Manager Server, Design Console, or Remote Manager. For such modifications, you must use Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

Note that Oracle Identity Manager requires Oracle SOA Suite 11g (11.1.1.3.0), which should be exclusive to Oracle Identity Management. You must install Oracle SOA Suite before configuring Oracle Identity Manager. If you are setting up integration between Oracle Identity Manager and Oracle Access Manager, ensure that Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager, and Oracle SOA Suite are configured in the same domain.

You can use the Oracle Identity Manager 11g Configuration Wizard to configure the non-J2EE components and elements of Oracle Identity Manager. Most of the J2EE configuration is done automatically in the domain template for Oracle Identity Manager.

In this scenario, you configure Oracle Identity Manager Server on one machine, and install and configure only Oracle Identity Manager Design Console on a different Windows machine (a development or design system).

The following are the high-level tasks in this scenario:

Install and configure Oracle Identity Manager Server on a machine after completing all the prerequisites, as described in Configuring OIM Server. Ensure that the Oracle Identity Manager Server is up and running.

On the Windows machine where you installed the Oracle Identity Management 11g (11.1.1.3.0) software, run the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure only Design Console. Note that you must provide the Oracle Identity Manager Server information, such as host and URL, when configuring Design Console. For more information, see Installing and Configuring Only OIM Design Console on Windows.

In this scenario, you configure Oracle Identity Manager Server on one machine, and install and configure only Oracle Identity Manager Remote Manager on a different machine.

The following are the high-level tasks in this scenario:

Install and configure Oracle Identity Manager Server on a machine after completing all the prerequisites, as described in Configuring OIM Server. Ensure that the Oracle Identity Manager Server is up and running.

On the machine where you installed the Oracle Identity Management 11g (11.1.1.3.0) software, run the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure only Remote Manager. Note that you must provide the Oracle Identity Manager Server information, such as host and URL, when configuring Remote Manager. For more information, see Configuring OIM Remote Manager.

In this scenario, suitable for test environments, you install and configure Oracle Identity Manager Server, Design Console, and Remote Manager on a single Windows machine.

The following are the high-level tasks in this scenario:

Install and configure Oracle Identity Manager Server on a machine after completing all the prerequisites, as described in Configuring OIM Server. Ensure that the Oracle Identity Manager Server is up and running.
